You get nine hours of battery life from two minutes of charging for Magic Mouse 2. It's really not an issue.

"What was the name of that song I shazamed while visiting Amsterdam? Ah, here it is." Location is massively important in searching for a memory. I will forget the dates I was in Europe, but I will not forget that I was there.

The problem in this case isn’t centralized App Stores. It’s software that relies on a centralized server. If Skype we’re still P2P, then maybe it could evade the Great Firewall a bit easier. But it’s not, and China will just ban the Skype

Probably not, it was in Thai I believe, and was discovered to decode into strange messages when passed through certain translators and keyboards. (Maybe there are different types of comments though)

This is especially true when combined with mass surveillance, domestically and abroad. Huge trove of data that is likely already being mined with machine learning and other techniques.

Yes. Buddybuild can build IPA files and upload them directly to iTunes Connect.

Yeah, these days it's easy to use an online service to submit to the App Store. Buddybuild (buddybuild.com) is really helpful for this. It acts as a CI system, and it can deploy builds to iTunes Connect with one click.

Yes, it's "free" (not open source). It's included with the purchase of a Mac.

It's open source software. Can't we just upload the source to a new site when the old one goes down? It's different than GitHub, which is a proprietary, centralized system.

I agree. I was responding to someone who thinks that will be commoditized by "auto parts companies". Whether or not that's true, safety is the most important component of the user experience of a self-driving car. Once that&#

Apple is an example of why your last paragraph likely isn't true. It's about the end-to-end experience, not the parts that compose it.

Snapchat, Twitter, and YouTube have considerably lowered the barrier to entry. Before, you had to sign a contract with a media company. Now, anyone can sign up and push their personal brand.

I would too, if I theorized that there were toxic compounds in my water, and then found a study that proves that to be correct.

Yes, backwards compatibility is great. But it does not come without a cost.

Why was the transition to HiDPI so much less painful on macOS, then? Because Apple designed the core OS to handle it much better, and make it easier to support for developers. (which was years in the making, far before the launch of rMBP.)

When Cortana was launched on Windows, I went to a Microsoft Store to try it out. I found a Surface and tapped the Cortana button, and it opened a "Microphone Calibration Setup Wizard" that looks like it was from Windows XP. So yea

I think selling his company to Facebook has far wider reaching implications for privacy than where he hosts his blog, unfortunately.

Google seems to have a hard time with this. It seems like a majority of announcements at I/O are half a year away (or more) from being released.

Was it just to make a point? Anyone can Google "Richard Stallman" to retrieve more than enough training data to train an image classifier.

You're correct about iOS. For OS X, open App Store and then Updates. You'll see individual Safari updates (separate from OS updates) in the update history.

It's certainly feasible. Your containers run on a public cloud, just as Heroku does, which enables access to things like logging-as-a-service. But you'll soon find that such services are just as horrifically marked up as Heroku, b
